Off to Florida with my favorite adventure buddy🛫

Kathmandu, Nepal🇳🇵
~
Ask me about this country and you will see me come alive. It is the nation God called me to just over 2 years ago. It is His promise fulfilled when I stepped off that plane early last March onto Nepali soil. It is proof that my God is alive and moving and desires to have a relationship with us...with you. It is a country that tries to hinder the message of salvation, yet the Gospel is thriving in the midst of persecution.
~
It is the place that showed me what it truly means to love people. I learned that listening communicates more than words ever could. It showed me that light ALWAYS drives out the darkness. And it is still the place that sets my heart on fire. Now I ask...

What sets your heart on fire?

Have stories to tell, not stuff to show.

Have you dreamed to see revival? Well, it’s happening. It’s here. A Jesus movement is sweeping across the nation and world.
•
I believe a big part of that revival is taking place on college campuses. College students are seeking for fulfillment in every possible way, but as soon as they encounter the love of Jesus their life is forever changed. They are seen, known, and surrendered because of the simple Gospel.
•
His grace is enough. The party scene, hookup culture, money/fame...it will not fulfill. How do I know? I’ve pursued it all. I sought fulfillment in all the wrong places for a long time, but my freshman year of college I encountered God. I encountered His love, grace, and forgiveness. My life was forever changed.
•
He was pursuing me and continues to pursue me and will always continue to pursue a relationship with me. And He is doing the same for you. He sees YOU. Just as you are He sees you and loves you. Stop running and turn around. He is right there, ready to receive you.
•
If you have questions or just want to talk, please reach out...strangers or friends, let’s connect.

Do not compare your journey with another person’s destination.

So proud of my sister and the woman she is today. She cares deeply, loves well, and truly pursues a life like Jesus.

I like you.

Coffee shops are one of my favorite places. Why? It’s a space for conversations, a good book, journaling, time with the Lord, photo editing, or just a good cup of coffee. This is a missional coffee shop in my hometown. They have an amazing mission, go check them out🤘🏼

So thankful to have this dude in my life. Caleb is one of the funniest, craziest, and most encouraging people I have in my life. Our house is a lot quieter without him this year, but I’m pumped to see how God continues to use him in the media world for His glory. Keep crushing it brotha🤘🏼

Ever since I’ve started pursuing photography God has given me this phrase: “Change what it is to be a social media influencer.” No I don’t have 100k followers, my photos don’t get published with huge companies, I don’t work with celebrities, but that doesn’t mean I can’t affect the following that I have. I really desire to use this platform for one main thing: I pray that my posts and my content leave people feeling encouraged and loved. I want the words I use to draw people closer to God. And if you don’t know God and have questions or have ever wondered how to have a relationship with Him, reach out. I’d love to talk with you! God loves you, He sees you, and He’s relentlessly pursuing you just as you are.
